Harness today added two tools<\/a> to track and analyze the impact code generated by artificial intelligence (AI) coding tools is having on application development.<\/p>\n

An AI Development Lifecycle (DLC) tool installs agent software on a developer\u2019s machine to track adoption, sessions, and the code created across every coding agent, while a Cloud & AI Cost Management tool has been extended to track spending on AI infrastructure.<\/p>\n

Trevor Stuart, general manager and senior vice president for Harness, said the goal is to provide DevOps teams with greater insights into how much real productivity is being gained following the adoption of AI coding tools.<\/p>\n

For example, the AI DLC provides insights into whether developers are using the AI coding tools that organizations have licensed or are using a set of shadow AI coding tools instead. Additionally, the number of tokens consumed and code shipped to production can be traced to the developer, agent, repository, team, and business unit. Tokens burned on abandoned code, bloated prompts, expensive model choices, and cache misses are all surfaced automatically.<\/p>\n

DevOps teams can track AI-generated code based on pull request (PR) cycle time, number of incidents and vulnerabilities created or any of the DevOps Research and Assessment (DORA) metrics.<\/p>\n

Finally, spikes in spending are also flagged before they hit the invoice using the same Harness detection engine that many DevOps teams already use to monitor cloud costs.<\/p>\n

While there is little doubt that more code than ever is being generated, most DevOps teams have little insight into how much cost is actually being incurred or how much of that code is making its way into a production environment. Too many organizations have simply been focused on encouraging developers to adopt these tools, which often leads to them being used to generate as much code as possible.<\/p>\n

That so-called \u201ctokenmaxxing\u201d approach generally leads to greater inefficiencies because developers are not focused enough on which large language models (LLMs) are best suited for a specific task based on the quality of the code generated and overall cost, says Stuart. Few DevOps teams have much insight into how adoption of these tools is changing the way developers allocate their time and effort. For example, a recent Harness survey<\/a> finds a full 94% of organizations are not tracking metrics such as time spent reviewing AI code for accuracy (53%), fixing subtle bugs from AI code (52%), explaining AI code to teammates (48%) and context switching between tools (45%).<\/p>\n

As the amount of spending on AI coding continues to exponentially increase, it\u2019s now more a question of when DevOps teams will need to revisit the total cost of application development. While there will always be a desire to increase the pace at which software is developed, there are real costs that need to be factored into any return on investment (ROI) equation. Hopefully, in time that will lead to more efficient and responsible consumption of AI infrastructure resources at a time when many DevOps teams are finding themselves far exceeding their allocated budgets.<\/p>\n
